No one had been more shocked than Brian when Melanie, of all people, had suggested that, since she didn't really celebrate Christmas, but J.R. was heading to Pittsburgh to be with her dads, perhaps Brian and Justin would rather come to Toronto to have a more subdued celebration with Lindsay and Gus.

"Lindsay never really gets to enjoy the decorations she puts up, since we're rushing around and then traveling during this time," Mel had explained. "I just thought it would be nice if you and Justin wanted to come to our place instead… You know, let Linds and Gus go all out, and then have a nice quiet holiday at home."

"Quiet" was all Brian needed to hear before he agreed.

Brian and Justin travel to Toronto to spend Christmas with a small part of their chosen family.

A catch all for all the scenes, situations and shenanigans that don't fit into Britin: A Day in the Life or any of the currently being written or planned for stories in the Sunbeam Chronicles. Will include one-shots or scenes starting from the end of season five and onward; mainly focusing on the time before the start of 25 Days of Smutmas.

Brian is a popular senior in high school. He's pretty much the Brian we know and love, but all things change when he encounters Justin Taylor the preacher's daughter. Their love will be something you will never forget. This fic is loosely based on the movie of the same name. All mistakes are mine.

Sequel to "Can I Come Back Home to You?" The epilogue left you guys with a lot of questions. Who's dead? Who killed someone? What's this big emergency? Well, you'll get all those answers. But first, we left Brian and Justin as they were going on their honeymoon. Enjoy, everyone!

When Justin came home from his studio and found Brian in the kitchen making dinner, he knew something was wrong.

Brian didn’t cook. Even after 15 years of knowing the man and spending most of them in a relationship with him, Justin could count the times Brian had made them dinner on one hand. Apparently, tonight he was adding one more to the tally.

Fifteen-year-old Gus is spending the summer with Brian and Justin in New York. He decides to test the limits of Brian's relatively lenient parenting style, with unintended consequences.

I know this arc has been written hundreds of times, but I've never read anything like what I've come up with. I've changed a few timelines in order to make this my story. So join me as we find out what happened after the infamous Anniversary party.

This story picks up right where 'Aftermath' ends. This is the third and final installment in the 'After' series of stories about the aftereffects of Justin's bashing by the despicable Chris Hobbs. This story centers primarily on those closest to Justin and how they deal with what has happened. It's my interpretation of what could have been going on in between scenes during the first episode of Season 2. I hope you will enjoy it.

My eternal gratitude to the remarkable Judy for her beta skills, and my beautiful granddaughter, Marika, for the evocative banner. I love you both dearly.

In Aftershock, we see how Justin's bashing at the end of Season One affected Brian. It ended without revealing how the bashing affected everyone else who loved and cared about Justin. The series skipped from that iconic scene of Brian sitting in the hospital right after Justin was admitted, to a month later at the beginning of Season Two, so we have to use our imagination about what went on at the hospital after Michael joined Brian. I hope you will find my perspective interesting.

Many thanks to my beta, Judy, for her help and my darling Granddaughter, Marika, for her evocative banner. And also thanks to those who asked me 'what about the others' when they read 'Aftershock'. Their questions led to this sequel.

A QAF fanfic reader made a request for stories that involved the immediate aftermath of that tragic bashing of our beloved Justin and how Brian responded to it. I believe it inspired a lot of our writers, including myself. I do hope you will find this story interesting, although I can't say it will be a lot of fun, considering the subject matter. Please keep in mind how things did turn out for the couple later on as you reach the end of this story, and don't be too sad.

I want to thank Gloria Hernon for her brilliant suggestion. I also wish to thank my beloved Judy for her beta skills and my beloved granddaughter, Marika, for her amazing banner.

AU: Set around season five, only the bombing never happened. Lindsay & Melanie still live in the Pitts with the kids, and Justin never existed...until now. In this AU story which is completely sci-fi, Justin is an alien who has come to Earth, and Brian is the human he intends to be with.

Almost a decade ago Brian and Justin got married so that Justin would get his green card and could stay in the USA. They haven’t seen each other after they got married and now Justin has found someone he wants to marry for love. There’s only one thing in the way. He’s married to Brian. Now his job is to get Brian sign the divorce papers, which might turn out to be harder than he thought.
